Pros

decent pay/benefits- starting benefits are decent, but you have to wait for seniority to get the upgraded package. Mostly friendly workplace environment. decent enough openings to move around in business, or transfer to a store closer to you if you move.

Cons

artificial limitation of 40 hour week availabilities (x number offered, other only get 24 or 12 hour per week minimums) training mostly limited to watching one video and then signing a paper, not very much hands-on

Pros

Job can be fun and interesting Always something new to learn Lots of personal fulfillment as a manager when things go right

Cons

Unsupportive upper management Toxic work culture, unpaid overtime is rewarded and even expected or forced, even to the tune of multiple weeks in a row with no days off when you are salaried. They claim to support work life balance but even the smallest effort to set boundaries is heavily punished. Not paid as much as we should be for everything we have to do and deal with
